The Family Tree of Jesus: Finding Hope in Our Messy Stories
Flipping Tables
Welcome to the table! In this episode, we’re pulling up a chair to explore the family tree of Jesus — and what it reveals about God’s heart for our own broken families. By getting to know the people in Jesus’ genealogy, we discover that there’s nothing in our stories too big for Him to redeem. Jesus understands our grief, our scandals, our trauma, and our mess. He gets it — because His own family line tells a story of grace breaking through generations of pain. Twila joins the conversation as we unpack Matthew’s genealogy, written to prove that Jesus is both the Son of David and...

Introducing study of Matthew: The Way of the Kingdom of Heaven
Flipping Tables
Welcome back to the table! It’s been a minute since I’ve sat here doing what I love—talking about Jesus, the Table Flipper, and learning His table-flipping ways. In this episode, my co-host Kimberly Daniels joins me as we reflect on the unexpected turns our lives have taken this year. We’re also launching a brand-new study: Matthew—The Way of the Kingdom of Heaven. Together, we’re asking God to teach us the ways of His Kingdom through Matthew’s unique perspective and personality. This episode is all about setting the tone for what’s ahead in our study! Like Matthew, we each...

Relationship Landmines
Flipping Tables
Welcome to the table! This is the last episode in the Ephesians series. Amy Crump is back to talk with me about the relationship landmines associated with parenting and work. We do not ignore slavery in this passage either. I also get to talk briefly about the armor of God. Paul brings all of the relationship landmines together by laying out the armor of God in the context of our relationship struggles. We do not have a people problem. We have a real enemy working to wreak havoc in our relationships. This makes complete sense especially in light of how our relationships are to reveal that we...

The "S" Word
Flipping Tables
Welcome to the table! My conversation with Amy Crump covers a lot of ground. We had a long set up of discussing our formative years growing up in the Church era where we learned a number of erroneous teachings on the subject of submission. Add in a word study, a trip back to Genesis, and you end up with a long on ramp to Ephesians 5. Instead of editing this episode down, we’re inviting you to spend some extra time with us at the table. This might be a good episode to listen to while you’re being active. I love to listen to long podcast episodes when I’m cooking, doing household work, or...

Making You Fit
Flipping Tables
Welcome to the table! In this episode we’re in the second half of Ephesians 4. This conversation goes in a bunch of different directions. We’re using the Message translation so that might have something to do with the flow of the conversation. Thanks for joining us! The old life has to go as we put on Christ. Some of the things we talk about include: Spiritual growth Hypocrisy Anger This is my favorite part: His Holy Spirit, moving and breathing in you, is the most intimate part of your life, making you fit for himself. Ephesians 4:30 MSG Read the Bible in 90 days!...

Passover Part 2
Flipping Tables
Welcome back to the table for part two of a conversation Twila and I had about Passover in season one. Holy week is such an important week of remembrance each and every year. This week was important for the Jews to remember how God delivered them from Egyptian slavery. For us followers of Jesus, this week is when we remember the high cost of what our sin cost Jesus. Against the backdrop of Passover, Jesus rolled out the New Covenant. This year during this season of lent, I have been richly blessed in my relationship with Jesus, who you know, I call the Table Flipper. This week, I am...

Passover Part 1
Flipping Tables
Welcome to the table! In honor of Holy week, I'm re-releasing two episodes from season 1. We were in a series on Mark. Watch for part 2 to be released later this week. I hope you have a wonderful Easter! This is part one of a two part episode about the last supper. I talk about my religious experiences of celebrating the Passover and the Days of Unleavened Bread instead of Easter. Twila and I are both seeking to learn more about the Jewish holidays. We are learning and growing in understanding. I'm sure we've barely only begun to scratch the surface. Join us as we dig into learning about...

A Life Worthy of the Calling
Flipping Tables
Welcome to the table! In this episode Kimberly joins me at our table to discuss what it means to live a life worthy of the gospel. Well, at least our understanding of what it means. This is a progressive work in our lives. Maturing in Christ, growing up in our salvation and becoming like Jesus and doing as Jesus did is the heart of Ephesians 4. The Gospel is table flipping! We don’t walk worthy so that God will love us, but because He does love us. It is motivated out of gratitude, not out of a desire to earn merit. Our text is . We are using the Message translation. NIV 4:1 As a prisoner...

Becoming Insiders
Flipping Tables
Welcome to the table! In this episode Twila joined me at the table to talk about so many things. We just love to talk about all the things, all the parts of our lives. Some of it we get to bring to the podcast and some of we hold close. We have hearts exploding with refreshment from not just the recent global gathering of the Church, but also from walking through this season of Lent. It was fun for us to share some of our takeaways with one another and with you our beloved podcast community. We see you with the eyes of our hearts. We’re honored you invite us into a small part of your...

Bread for Outsiders
Flipping Tables
Welcome to the table! Kimberly joined me today as we recapped an event we have been anticipating and praying for over the past year! God’s kingdom was on full display at Gather 25 and as we discussed our expectations were exceeded. If you missed it or want to rewatch sessions you can visit . Our mini recap is a great segway to our discussion of God’s grace to the outsiders in Ephesians 2: 14-22. Again, we are loving the message translation that brings a fresh perspective. If you’ve never read or listened to the message translation, it only takes about 25 minutes to get through the...

It’s been a minute since I’ve sat here doing what I love—talking about Jesus, the Table Flipper, and learning His table-flipping ways.
In this episode, my co-host Kimberly Daniels joins me as we reflect on the unexpected turns our lives have taken this year. We’re also launching a brand-new study: Matthew—The Way of the Kingdom of Heaven.
Together, we’re asking God to teach us the ways of His Kingdom through Matthew’s unique perspective and personality. This episode is all about setting the tone for what’s ahead in our study!
Like Matthew, we each have our own “before and after” stories of following Jesus. Matthew went from being an insider, to an outsider, and then was brought back into the family of God—a story that mirrors the redeeming power of the gospel in all of us.
Whether you’ve been following Jesus for years, are just getting started, or are simply considering it, you’re invited to join us at the study table. Thanks for listening!
